Gone Girl

Director David Fincher’s Gone
Girl is a class act on all levels.

It all starts with the
fact Writer Gillian Flynn has done a masterful job in transforming her novel
into a screenplay and Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike have, successfully, brought
her main characters to life.Pike, especially,
deserves the highest accolades for her portrayal of a neglected wife, who has
gone missing. (If you haven’t read the
book, I won’t say more about the plot.)

About Me

Brian Porzak: I am a cinephile who likes to view films with a live audience. My taste runs the gamut, including indies, studio films, foreign films and most all genres. Because I see so many films, friends often ask me what to see. So, I thought I'd blog about what is worth seeing or not. As a writer/filmmaker myself, I hope to give a more uplifting perspective than the typical critic. Filmmaking is tremendously difficult. Just because some problems might exist in a particular work does not, necessarily, destroy its enjoyability and I think that is necessary to point out to would-be viewers.
